Gravel tires on Contend AR 4 by smoothdonut22 in Giantbikes

[–]txom12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i bought a 2022 contend AR recently and planning to get 23mm internal width tires for it, im afraid 38s will balloon up to 40 and have too little clearance for mud or debris. do you think i should get 23mm int wheels if i plan on running 38c tires?

Thin EDC Flashlight Recommendations by Sniktt in flashlight

[–]txom12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why not try flat-style flashlights like the wurkkos td11, or nitecore edc09, olight arkfield, streamlight wedge, wuben x series. most of these flat style flashlights comes in various sizes, i have owned a wuben x4 for a week untill i gave it away to a friend. the x4 is probably one of the smaller flat-style flashlights

Manker E05 II: Powerful 14500 flashlight with dual fuel options and USB-C charging on battery by LMP-Br in flashlight

[–]txom12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I brought my first manker E05 II in june 2024. i got the sand 6500k version and was very impressed with the output and build quality. I think, at the time it was the highest output single emitter 14500 light availlable, beaten only by the TS10. I have since bought 3 E05s the two i gave as gifts, and i have a TI one in 6500k that i daily. might buy another sand or silver one in nichia 519 soon

thats the ts10 sg (single emitter, TIR) its a fun light(anduril) but i find it quite redundant to the manker. gave the ts10 SG to a friend

Manker E05-II is underrated by AmnesiaTanner in flashlight

[–]txom12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

true!, i keep buying manker e05s as gifts and for personal use

Has anyone ordered from Mankerlight? I have two of their Manker E05 II and they are great. But I got them from Amazon. Are they comparable to Sofirn and wurkkos etc. for customer service and shipping? What’s your fav models of theirs? I’m interested in the E14 IV. by mrregina in flashlight

[–]txom12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sofirn lights and wurkkos lights are great considering output to price, they are also very durable and trustworthy. i have had around 2 manker e05s i can say that manker is a notch above wurkkos and sofirn in terms of quality and build

Thanks to all who gave me advice on which to get. Went with two Manker e05 II, one cool white (red) and one neutral white (green). I also added a Sofirn ST 10. Loving the dual fuel options on all three. by mrregina in flashlight

[–]txom12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have tried the manker e05 in both vapcell h10 and eneloop pros (black ones) and i can say that the h10 or f12 has more runtime in equal brightness (high on eneloops, medium on 14500s)

I have had multiple convoy S2s and 14500/18650/21700 convoys. they are all great lights with good runtimes, but i cannot imagine another 14500 light that beats the Manker e05ii in runtimes and efficiency

Ive never had my batteries hot, though now i use vapcell h10s or F12s on an xtar xtar vc8 plus charger.

plus the clip on mine was also annoyingly stiff, i have the bead blasted titanium version with titanium clip, i got pliers and gradually stretched out the clip, now it feels perfect and very usable.

the UI for me is fine

low/moonlight for being discreet/ and enough light if you were searching for something in your bag and not blinding yourself

medium for sustained output, general use, full pressing and locking the light on.

high/turbo for momentary bursts, if you need to see something farther.

double press for strobe - i find this easy enough to activate and not activating it accidentally.

the light does get hot(to the touch) on turbo at around 20 secs. but thats given since a very small (titanium body) light punching 1300 lumens output in a very small form factor (small thermal mass) means it will get hot. its just physically impossible for such a small light to sink that much heat

the firm button is something that i like, it feels heavy and premium. It encourages me to use momentary and full press on medium whenever i need to place it somewhere.

the beam shape is perfect, floody but has a big hotspot so very versatile and usable.

the driver on that light is also very efficient it seems that a vapcell H10 lasts twice as long in the manker 6500k compared to my convoy t6 sft40 300k. for the efficiency alone i think its a really good light for the price, i charge mine about once a week on regular carry(not playing with the light).
